Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job

Chapter 118 The Return Journey
In the dining room of Wayne's house, two demon hunters from the wolf school were sitting around the hot pot made by Wayne, and the food was really delicious.

At the bottom of the pot with a strong flavor, all kinds of fresh and delicious ingredients are cooked, and the sauce prepared with various spices and hot sauces. The deliciousness makes Geralt, who has never eaten hot pot, unable to stop eating.

"You've gained weight, Geralt."

"It seems that living with Yennefer has made your life very good."

Geralt shrugged his shoulders, picked up a large piece of beef from the hot pot with a spoon, put it in his mouth and ate it happily, after finally swallowing it in his stomach, he smashed his mouth with relish, and picked up After drinking a glass of high-end cherry nectar, he said meaningfully:
"You should be doing well, Wayne. I saw that your wine cabinet was almost full of wine. You worked hard at night."

"Besides, a lot of good things have been added to this family. It seems that you have not been idle during this time."

"Can you tell me, what have you done during the six months since I left?"

Wayne chuckled, there was nothing worth concealing about what he did, so he briefly talked about some of the tasks he performed and some of the monsters he encountered.

Of course, he told the most detailed about Waylon's actions, and at the same time, he also told about the precious elven manuscripts he obtained, the green dragon materials, and the things he got acquainted with George.

"Green Dragon? Evil God Dagan? Griffin School?"

Geralt was still a little unhappy when he heard that Wayne participated in Waylon's dragon slaying mission, but after hearing him explain that he invited the golden dragon Borch and a demon hunter from the Griffin School to act together Only then did it turn into a look of interest.

He also met a guy from the Griffin School more than ten years ago, but that guy was old-fashioned, he didn't like to collect money for his work, and he always liked to preach to others, so he wasn't likable.

Wayne nodded and said:

"Yes, his name is George. He is a demon hunter with superb swordsmanship and the ability to use powerful seals. Their past fortress of the Griffin School is located in the Corville Mountains."

"But it seems that because of an avalanche planned by warlocks, their school suffered heavy losses, and it is almost completely withered now."

When Geralt heard this, his expression became a little silent, and he said in a dull voice:
"George of the Griffin School? This is a famous guy. When he became a witcher, I was not even born. Do you remember the painting we carved on the wall of Kaer Morhen?"

Wayne thought for a few seconds after hearing the words, and asked back with a strange expression:
"Dragon Slayer George?"

Geralt nodded and said:

"Yes, that's the painting, the mural of a demon hunter riding a horse and killing a huge monster under the cheers of the crowd."

"This incident was very famous at the time, and it was widely spread, but neither the local rulers nor the residents knew that the horses ridden by the demon hunters were just means of transportation, and we would not fight on horseback, and George killed It's not a dragon, it's just a petrified cockatrice."

Wayne was also amused by the joke when he heard this. He did have this painting in his memory, but he never thought that George was the protagonist in that painting when he met George.

It can only be said that the life of a demon hunter is really very long. Maybe before you die, your deeds will become legends among others, and have even been passed down for generations.

It's just a pity that the glorious era of the demon hunter is over, but the current demon hunter is living a miserable life, which also gave Wayne the idea of ​​​​reviving this profession.

After talking about George, the two also talked about the evil god Dagon and the underwater half-murloc city by Lake Vizima.

I heard that this matter involved the goddess of the lake, and the purpose of that evil god Dagon was to turn this huge lake into his evil god's domain, threatening the safety of the entire Temeria kingdom, Geralt It didn't take long to agree.

However, he suggested that this matter should not be formally carried out until next spring. At that time, when they leave Kaer Morhen, they can bring all the brothers from the Wolf School, and then make an appointment with George from the Griffin School, four or five hunters. If the demons act together, it shouldn't be a big problem even if it is that evil god Dagan.

For Geralt's proposal, Wayne readily agreed that it was similar to his original plan, except that in his plan, he would invite a few more spellcasters to act together.

The two ate, drank, bragged and bickered until Geralt stretched his waist unsatisfied after eating all the ingredients in the hot pot, with an indescribably happy expression.

Maybe staying by Yennefer's side can make Geralt the white wolf experience the happiness of love, but only when he is around his good brother can he truly relax, show no scruples, and reveal his undisguised character.

"It's going to snow soon, we have to hurry up and set off to Kaer Morhen."

"If we don't leave soon, the mountain will be closed by heavy snow."

Wayne nodded upon hearing that. They have been down the mountain for nine months, and he misses Teacher Vesemir and the other brothers from the Wolf School very much.

And now that he has money and excellent equipment making materials such as dragon skin and keel, he plans to prepare some good gifts for every brother after returning this time.

Of course, even if you want to return to Kaer Mohan, it is not something you need to act immediately. There is just a dilapidated castle, and you must bring some living supplies as in previous years before you can set off.

And Wayne is different from Geralt and other solitary demon hunters. He still has two days to say goodbye to his friends in Wikima City. You tell them that he will return here next spring, so that Don't worry about them.

Keira's reaction was a bit intense. After all, they have been entertaining every few days for the past six months, and suddenly they can't see each other for several months, which makes the female sorceress a little uncomfortable.

But the two parties are neither lovers nor lovers, and she has no reason to keep Wayne, so she can only sulk herself a little, and at the same time, she has made more in-depth thinking about the relationship between the two.

A few days later, Wayne and Geralt bought a lot of supplies in the city, prepared a lot of gifts, and stuffed the two mounts to the brim.
He entrusted his house to the little earth spirit Lala's family to take care of him, then set off to leave Vizima City, and started the journey back to Kaer Morhen according to the route he had come to.

The return journey this time was different from the time they came. Without the obstacles of the mission, they moved faster. Wayne rode his mount Lucifer, and together with Geralt, it only took one day to arrive at the small town of Floating Harbor.

They did not stop in this small town, but found them at the port. The captain, Wesker the Blackbeard, was appointed by Wayne in advance.

The captain from Skellige was still the same as he had seen at the beginning of the year. He was strong and dressed in a gray fur coat. He looked like a black bear walking upright.

The last time the cooperation was quite pleasant, this time Blackbeard Wesker specially reserved the two best cabins for the two of them, and provided them for the use of the two witchers.

At the same time, after a whole year of hard work, Wesker has assembled a more sophisticated deck, preparing to compete with Wayne on the Gwent card, washing away the humiliation of failure in the first half of the year.

Of course, such an idea is futile. Even though Wayne showed mercy, he still beat the shit out of Wesker and his crew and won a lot of special products from the Skellige Islands.

On the other hand, Geralt, who was also full of confidence, lost dozens of Orens under Blackbeard Wesker's superb card skills. technology.

It was another seven or eight days of sailing, and it was not until late October that Wayne and Geralt set foot on the territory of the Kaedwen Kingdom again.

After coming to this country that impressed Wayne deeply and also had serious discrimination against non-human races, Wayne immediately thought of Toruville, whom he had met in the elven ruins, and their group of non-human races. resident.

When the two parted, there was an agreement that they would meet again when they returned to the north at the end of the year.

Wayne never backed down on his promise, and while it was still early and the snow had not started to fall in the northern countries, he told Geralt that he wanted to go to the ruins of the elves.

Geralt didn't forget the place where he learned Gwent cards, and agreed to Wayne's suggestion after thinking about it for a few seconds.

The two quietly moved forward in the Kingdom of Kaedwen, avoiding those human gathering places that discriminated against non-human races. Following the route they set out at the beginning of the year, it took a few more days to finally arrive at the place where the elf ruins were located. that forest.

When they rode their horses and headed towards the location of the big karst cave in their memory, before they got close to the entrance of the cave, a pleasantly surprised voice came from a tree not far away.

"Wayne! Is that you?"

As soon as the words fell, a slender and beautiful elf girl in a fur coat with two black braids jumped down from the tree.

It was Toruville who hadn't seen him for more than half a year.
